I've been playing TP as well. It's pretty awesome. There are three items... items arn't spoilers, right? That I really like.

The bomb arrow, the spinner, and the ball and chain.
The bomb arrow is just awesome. It's a bomb. On an arrow. Cool things happen with it. Like, in (UNDISCLOSED LOCATION!) I went into a room, and on the other end were two waiting obnoxious enemies with high armor. I notice a bottomless pit next to either of them. So what do I do? Thwip, bang! I knock their armored asses into oblivion. And not the nifty elder scrolls kind.
The spinner is fun to use, and cool. It's... dare I say it? Almost extreme. Grinding along at high speeds, launching yourself off onto other rails... If they were to, like, make a Link: Pro Spinner...er game, I would snatch it up in an instant. It's too bad there's not much for it outside of the dungeon you get it.
And the ball and chain? Half of it is nostalgia for LttP, where the first boss in the prison has this weapon. I'm a bit disappointed it's called ball and chain and not morning star, but it's still really fun to twirl it about and then launch it to smash things painfully with a giant hunk of metal.

Yep, the Ball and Chain is so cool. And the Spinner is also pretty cool... I use it when swarmed with small, weak enemies.


Oh, and one other thing. The Re-Deads? Ball and Chain 'em. Two hits kills them. When you throw it out, and again when you drag it back.

I haven't gotten the spinner and ball&chain items yet, but I knew of their existence. I do have the bomb arrows, however. Bomb arrows=nostalgic win.

...nostalgic bomb arrows? *goes to look this up*

Huh, I didn't know you could do that in Link's Awakening. I thought it was new. Though, it's still incredibly awesome.

There's a Heart Piece you access by rails. That's not really a spoiler, though, since you know exactly what to do when you see them.

Yeah, though I admit it's alot more fun on Twilight Princess than Link's Awakening. :P

I've actually found two heart pieces by rails. It still doesn't change the fact that the thing isn't really used much outside that one dungeon.

So, The Bard's Tale? More personality then any game in many, many years. Yes, even more then the ones that try to sell by their "attitude."

And it's good and cheap now, worth a rental at least, you'll laugh for a good while.

The beer song brought a smile to my lips, and the urge to sing along.

I lovd the characters in Bard's tale, but the game itself seemed a bit too unfocused.

Oh I did like that game when I last rented it, such a funny "chosen one" song.

Dunno if its the same song the bar one is, but it probably is. :lol:
When I'm bored, I like to wander around and cast X-Zone on random things.
